•••• Updates for week of 10 september 2012 ••••

No daily school Mass this week: With running a Mass at the Cathedral that evening, we will not have a Mass this week Wednesday.

2 p.m. Dismissal Schedule on Wednesday, 12 September: Also, to accommodate the transportation of students to the event on Wednesday, we will dismiss students at 2 p.m. For those parents who can pick up students at 2 p.m., students will be ready then. If a parent cannot pick up any earlier than normal, students will have study hall time.

There are no practices on Wednesday afternoon. Wednesday is also a ‘no homework night.’

Monthly Parent Meeting, Monday, 10 September, 6:30 p.m.: We will have our monthly parent meeting this Monday evening, 10 September 2012, in the cafeteria. Mr. Iliff will have some updates, and Mrs. Strickland will have the bulk of the evening. She and Mr. Iliff will be giving a profile on college planning, grade level by grade level, so that parents and students understand where they should be today in that process. We will seek to define all of the terms used in college admissions.

25^th anniversary Dinner and Mass Two days away! Remember this Wednesday, 12 September 2012 is the 25^th Anniversary Celebration Mass and Dinner. If a family is still interested in attending, call the school office. Thanks to all who returned forms last week, and to all who have volunteered or donated or bought tickets.
